Nice. Looks like the theories as to our "mystery company" were right!

Is this a time for ITG players to weep or DDR players to rejoice or neither? *a future merger of DDR and ITG series almost seems imminent now*

Or, this could be another EA-Thrill Kill thing. Remember what happened when EA brought Thrill Kill. Yeeeeeeeeeeah.

I predict that at least some arcade release in the future will be composed of boss songs. All of them. From both games. Updated to take advantage of each other game's strengths/weaknesses.

It got released as Wu-Tang Shaolin Style.

The only logical conclusion:

WU-TANG SHAOLIN DANCEOFF

ITG seems too popular to like do a complete makeover/"kill it with a stick on the spot" to me, I just really expect some DDR crossovers to make an appearance with just added shit, like Fletcher said.

Yeah, a more honest answer (now that I've got the silly out of my system) is that we'll probably see some bleedthrough between titles, for one thing. One more interesting thought, though, is that ITG becomes the "harder" game and DDR continues at about the same level it's currently at instead of traveling the hideous path that things like FELMO lie on.

I see two paths this could take:

1. Konami continues with the 13 block rating system and makes some of their own 11+ songs. Later they make a game consisting of everything from both DDR and ITG. :-)

2. Konami keeps them seperate and like just stops ITG but continues with DDR :-(

Hopefully Konami will release ITG2 PS2 and ITG3 without too much change. I liked the new theme and I wanted to see the new 11, 12, 13 block songs.

What would suck is if Konami takes out everything above 10 and just puts it into the superNOVA theme or something of the like.

What would be funny is if Konami changes all the 11's 12's and 13's to 10's without changing the steps. Then they put it into a superNOVA theme.

I can't believe that
sincerelly I couldn't believe that piece of new.
maybe konami will make ITG something similar like disney's rave, not an oficial DDR, but an arcade game too.
perhaps the next stage will be buy andamiro or just buy Pump It Up o.o
